I received an ARC for this book from NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review. If absolutely nothing else, the initial blurb of this book is enough to make me grab it off the shelf. Dark things happening! There was a war! Ugly truths! Risks being taken and secrets being kept! Woo! What more could … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: An Inheritance of Ashes by Leah Bobet
Author: R
Twenty-something author who loves telling stories more than anything else.
I've never read any of Jodi Picoult's work before, though a quick look at a Books-A-Million the other day showed me that I'd be willing to at least give them a shot.

It's no secret that I'm a fan of YouTube gaming, and follow with great joy the likes of JackSepticEye, PewDiePie, and Markiplier. I enjoy their work, and will follow them outside of gaming as well, into comedy sketches--musical numbers--whatever. I love watching creative people enjoy themselves, and these people shine.

The Winner's Curse is a book that I walked by in a library and the cover caught my eye. I'd been in looking for a different book (which I didn't find) and saw the gorgeous red-pink cover and had to see what it was about. The blurb was interesting enough, and since I wasn't finding … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW – The Winner’s Curse by Marie Rutkoski
Hey look! I'm writing something that isn't a book review! And it's not going to post on a Wednesday! THAT WORLD MUST BE COMING TO AN END If that's the case, I'll give you a cute picture and then put the rest below the cut, so you don't need to see my ugly death. Okay? … Continue reading Constructive Criticism and You: A Handy Guide
I had originally been a portion of a blog tour for this book (as you saw my promo post for it a post or so back) and was scheduled to give a review on that day. However, there was a stipulation in the tour (understandably) that if you could not give the book a 3-star … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW – Of Gods and Madness: The Faithful by Justin D. Herd
